Keri Russell Bares Her Toned Abs for 'Malibu' Mag (Exclusive Photos)

Keri Russell shows off her toned abs in this sexy new photo from her spread in Malibu magazine’s May 2014 issue, provided exclusively to JustJared.com.

Here is what the 38-year-old The Americans actress had to share with the mag:

On why her series works so well: “At its best, when the show and the writing and everything are really working, I think it’s so interesting. Anyone who’s been in a relationship longer than two years, married or not — or even a business partnership — [knows that] relationships are so complicated. I love the idea that they didn’t know each other, and that they’re in this marriage, which essentially is not real [but] then they do end up falling in love. [The show explores] how that is, for people who’ve known each other for so long, [to] then slowly fall in love with each other and how that affects their work.”

On her days of standing in audition lines: “I remember auditioning for Felicity, and all of us were standing outside. We were all 20 years old, standing in these big lines, and I remember one girl saying, ‘It’s so sad. Everything about it is so sad.’ And I remember thinking, ‘I think it’s so funny.’ It’s sad to her, but it’s really ridiculous what she’s doing.”

On starting out in the Mickey Mouse Club: “[I was] pretty bad. Don’t be deceived by the Mickey Mouse Club; there were a lot of shenanigans happening. I won’t speak for others, but I had my moments for sure.”
